Chapter 421 The Soul Jade Filled with Maternal Love (13)

The mirror of Yunmeng Yaochi, on the immortal tree.

"That Soul Jade from the Hundred Mountains..."

Watching Shi Tianjun leave, Xi Luo opened her mouth as if to speak but hesitated.

"Yes, it's what you think."

Before Xi Luo could finish speaking, Li Boyang nodded in affirmation.

"Since the soul of the Guhuoniao will turn into Soul Jade after death, then the Hidden Fly that died in the Hundred Mountains will naturally also give birth to Soul Jade."

"Guess who hid that Soul Jade back then?"

Upon hearing this, Xi Luo immediately understood.

"It's that Wu Yi again. Doesn't he hate his adoptive mother?"

Li Boyang was not surprised at all, because he knew that human nature was just that complicated.

"The complex relationship of love and hate between mother and child is difficult for outsiders to understand."

"The only thing that can be said for sure is that Wu Yi inherited much more than just a feather robe from Yin Fei."

"As for that Soul Jade, I think it's highly likely that he entrusted it to the Flower Mantis for safekeeping."

Although he used a question format, Li Boyang's tone was unusually certain when he said it.

"So why didn't you realize this back then?"

Looking at Xi Luo's confused expression, Li Boyang retorted irritably.

"I am a prophet, that's true, but I am not an omniscient and omnipotent creator."

"At the time, I didn't know that there was such a thing as Soul Jade. In addition, Wu Yi deliberately exposed the existence of Feather Robe. Who would have thought that Yin Fei had left something behind?"

Li Boyang was telling the truth; a prophet is just a prophet, not an omniscient one.

Given Wu Yi's intentional or unintentional misleading and concealment, it would be truly strange if someone could foresee the existence of the Soul Jade.

"So how did you determine the location of the Soul Jade?"

Xi Luo knew Li Boyang's character well. Since he dared to tell Shi Tianjun the location of the Soul Jade, he must be 100% confident.

Considering that the Soul Jade inherited some of the characteristics of the Guhuoniao, it can conceal itself and block divination.

So how did Li Boyang know the location of Yin Fei's soul jade?
"It's quite a coincidence..."

"After I returned from the Ruins of Return, I wanted to get that Soul Jade back from the Flower Mantis."

"What I didn't expect was that the Flower Mantis didn't have that Soul Jade at all... or rather, he lost it."

"I reckon even Wu Yi didn't expect that a god would discover the Soul Jade's abilities ahead of time and steal it from the Flower Mantis."

Xi Luo knew all of this, and she even knew what happened next.

Fulfilling the holder's wishes is not a unique ability of the Hook Star Soul Jade.

Each Soul Jade has a similar effect; the only difference lies in the strength of its efficacy.

Most importantly, not all Soul Jade will "maliciously fulfill the holder's wishes".

That's just a characteristic of Hook Star Soul Jade, not a common characteristic of all Soul Jade.

Depending on the different types of Guhuoniao (a mythical bird) in its previous life, each Soul Jade grants wishes in a different way.

"The god who stole the Soul Jade wants to use it to fulfill his wish..."

"But He didn't expect that Yinfei's soul jade was full of maternal instincts and that the way it fulfilled wishes was rather unconventional."

As he said this, a hint of mockery was clearly visible on Li Boyang's face.

"Therefore, the half-human, half-god, Xiao Xi was born."

"She perfectly inherited the strengths of both her parents, and even awakened the heaven-defying supernatural power of 'Destiny Connection'." Looking at Xi Luo, whose expression was also somewhat strained, Li Boyang sighed.

"Wu Yi's death left behind a lot of trouble, but your sister is no less troublesome."

"I really don't know how much of a saintly heart she had when she was alive, that even the soul jade she left behind after her death was dedicated to helping others fulfill their wishes."

"The only good thing is that after understanding the whole story, it was easy to pinpoint the location of the snake god."

"After all, although the Soul Jade can conceal itself and shield itself from divination."

“But the actions of that foreign serpent god will surely leave traces.”

"Furthermore, with the Flower Mantis tracking the Snake God's trail all the way, he didn't have a Soul Jade to help him conceal his whereabouts."

Upon hearing this, Xi Luo finally understood how Li Boyang had found the location of the snake god.

As long as we figure out the origin of that Soul Jade.

With Li Boyang's methods and abilities, finding that snake god would naturally be an easy task.

This is the biggest difference between a prophet and an omniscient person.

A prophet can only perform divination if something happens and there are corresponding clues or information.

"Although it sounds reasonable, I still have a feeling that you're hiding something."

Xi Luo glanced at Li Boyang suspiciously, her mind already traumatized by the deception, and asked this question.

"With your current strength, knowing the location of that serpent god, wouldn't retrieving the Soul Jade from him be an easy task?"

"Why go through all that trouble and have Lord Eclipse go find them?"

Although Li Boyang never showed his strength again after returning from Guixu.

But the scene that turned "heaven and earth into a furnace" remained in Xi Luo's heart for a long time.

Just think about how many messes Wu Yi, who was also at the Refining Spirit Returning to Emptiness realm, left behind, and you can predict just how terrifying Li Boyang, who has reached the perfection of the Three Paths, truly is.

The reason I haven't shown my strength or made any achievements during these five years is simply because there's no need for it.

Unless Li Boyang encounters a powerful expert at the level of a Great Celestial God.

Otherwise, no one can make him take it seriously again and use any real methods or trump cards.

Not to mention, Xi Luo also learned from Li Boyang about the greatest advantage after achieving a perfect breakthrough in the three paths.

That is, essence, energy, and spirit complement each other, constantly circulating and improving one's cultivation every moment, resembling a perpetual motion machine of cultivation.

He gets stronger with every breath and sip of water; this is no exaggeration when it comes to Li Boyang.

"Of course it's because I don't have the energy or time."

"Since Lord Eclipse wants to collect all the Soul Jade, wouldn't it be perfect to have him make the trip?"

Upon hearing Li Boyang's words, Xi Luo's expression instantly shifted from suspicion to certainty.

"I knew you were hiding something!"

"Tell me! What have you discovered this time? What are you planning to do?"

Faced with the confident Xi Luo, Li Boyang didn't refute her this time. He had gotten used to Xi Luo's prejudice against him.

Even if an illiterate person reads books and learns to read, their mind will still be unable to process information.

Arguing with such an idiot will only make Li Boyang feel like he's an idiot too.

"Didn't you ever wonder why that serpent god knew about the Soul Jade's abilities?"

"Without close contact or even using the Soul Jade, how could an ordinary person possibly know that the Soul Jade can help people fulfill their wishes?"
